Podcast
Time to Step It Up, EAs (38:08 minutes)
Organizations are benefiting from embracing TOGAF, but what are
enterprise architects doing to enhance their strategic value? "This is a
time for the enterprise architects to really step up to the plate and be
accountable for real performance influence on the organization's bottom
line," said The Open Group's Jason Uppal.

Today's Story Highlights

Have Apps, Will Travel - Part 1
Travel apps open a whole new world for vacationers and business
travelers alike. However, there are now so many travel apps that it's
hard to determine which will render the best and most frequently updated
information. Muddying the issue further, app stores tend to list flight
and hotel apps first and leave the fun and wonky and offbeat apps buried
somewhere underneath.

As Linux Turns 20, Hopes and Wishes for Its Next 20 Years
Birthdays and anniversaries are a natural time for reflection on what
has been and what is yet to come. When they mark major milestones such
as 20 years, however, there's a considerable temptation to think bigger.
So it's been in the Linux blogosphere, where our favorite operating
system officially turns 20 today. Happy Birthday, Linux!

Jobs to Apple's Board: 'That Day Has Come'
An era came to an end Wednesday as Steve Jobs announced his resignation
as CEO of Apple, handing Tim Cook the reins of the company Jobs created
and transformed into a leader of the tech industry. Jobs will remain on
as chairman of Apple. In a brief letter of resignation, Jobs wrote that
the day has come when he "could no longer meet my duties and
expectations."

iPhone Could Bring Agony and Ecstasy to Sprint
It looks like Sprint is about to join Club iPhone. The wireless network
could become the Apple smartphone's third U.S. wireless carrier in
October, just in time for the holiday season, according to a recent Wall
Street Journal report. That's also the time frame in which Apple is
expected to release the fifth generation of iPhone, though the company
has not officially announced a date.

PCs Hit 'Big 30' - Next Stop, Boneyard?
Aug. 12, 2011, marked the 30th birthday of the IBM Personal Computer
(PC) -- an event marked in numerous congratulatory and cautionary
articles and blog posts. In the days since then, PC-related news has
remained thick on the ground. Most shocking, perhaps, was HP's
announcement that it was "looking at options" (i.e. sale or spinoff) for
its PC business.
